location
Fort Ord (Monterey County, California, US)family
Orchidaceae
notes Habitus & habitat...shaded pine needle duff, which presumably supports various mycorrhizae that the Piperia depend on for initial germination and sustenance. There are two plants with flowering stalks here: one in actual flower on the right; and one in pre-flower at left (looking like a slender asparagus shoot). I'd been hoping to see this uniquely bicolored & beautiful Piperia for years, and am very grateful to the admirably perceptive and good-natured David Styer (mathematician, birder, and botanist extraordinaire) for making that happen. And also for sharing his french fries! :-) photo category: Plant - annual/perennial
